Many years ago the B737-200 had the odd incident of undemanded roll immediately after take off. Boeing introduced various measures to address this issue but I recall that in almost every case the rate of rotation was much higher than the (then) recommended rate of 3 degrees per second.

I just wondered what the recommended rotation rate is for the Challenger and whether this had significantly been exceeded on the previous accidents?
